We love shore diving & snorkeling and roaming about around the island. We found this property as a diamond in the rough and are slowly turning it into a gem! Fresh paint, new quality bedding, furnishings and appliances are the recent beginnings of turning this unique property into a luxurious residence.

We loved this property the minute we saw it! The location is amazing - 1 house away from the water. It is close to town where you can walk to the shops and restaurants and far enough away for privacy.

In the morning, make a cup of coffee and walk 100 feet to the water, sit on the ledge and look out into the ocean while the breeze is blowing in your hair and just enjoy the moment! Parrots sit in our trees, iguanas roam our yard and the birds eat sugar out of your hand. Snorkeling in front of our house you will find many eels and octopus hiding in the coral. Don't forget your camera!

Su and Chris were excellent hosts! Su personally picked us up from the airport and were treated to cocktails upon reaching the apartment.
Even before the I arrived, Su proved knowledgeable regarding SCUBA diving and recommended dive shops as well dives she and Chris had personally done. In addition to dive shops, they also recommended car rental places even though they offer their truck for rental (which we ended up renting).
The apartment is conveniently located a stone's throw from the nearest dive shop and minutes from several others. Downtown is a about a 10 minute walk which has several really good restaurants. The apartment is spacious, clean and has more then enough towels for 2 people. The AC in the back room cools extremely well while front room takes a little longer but hey, we're in the Dutch Caribbean and their is a nice breeze that blows through.
WiFi did not initially work but once it was pointed out Chris hunted down and resolved the issue while we sipped those previously mentioned cocktails.
Su and Chris's hospitality along with their knowledge of diving locations and the great apartment will make sure that I stay with them again on future trips to Bonaire!
Thanks again,
Darren & Josh

Treasure by the Sea is just that - an absolute treasure. We had a fabulous week and would highly recommend you stay with Su and Chris on your travels to Bonaire. We stayed in the one bedroom apartment and it had everything you could ask for - fully equipped kitchen, lovely outdoor bar table and chairs and comfy loungers, large living room, bathroom and comfy beautiful canopy bed. Su and Chris were super friendly and had great tips for must see snorkel/dive spots around the island. You can walk to lots of great restaurants and the snorkeling right in front of the house (just across the road) was unbelievable. Su and Chris are doing renovations on the property at the moment, so there is construction going on - they are building a higher wall for privacy and putting in dive lockers etc. This wasn't that much of a bother but did take a bit away from the overall ambiance of the place. I am not sure how long the construction will take but will only further enhance the amenities on the property once it is completed.

We had a wonderful stay with Su and Chris! The ease of having the tank delivered to us was also great. The house was comfortable and had everything we needed, and it was perfect having the use of the truck and scooter. Our stay couldn't have been better. Chris shared some of his catch of the day with us and we got to enjoy lion fish for the first time! Thank you so very much, we had an awesome time!

Memorable vacation! Thank you to our hosts Su and Chris for giving us a home away from home. You made us feel at ease and welcomed. We appreciate also that you took the time to come with us to get our diving gear and that you made arrangements for an endless supply our air tanks delivered directly at the house. That made it so easy to dive everyday. We dove more than we thought and that was a great thing! We really enjoyed diving with you and hunting the lionfish.
Your 2 dogs are the best, just adorable!
Merci à vous pour ce formidable séjour. Nous avons adoré votre compagnie, votre maison, l'emplacement à proximité de tout, vos précieux conseils et que dire des magnifiques plongées! Vous êtes extraordinaires et nous vous en sommes reconnaissants.
Can't wait to go back to Bonaire! Next time we will try windsurf at Lac Bay and of course dive again!
Merci et meilleur succès à vous deux!
Marie-Anne and Pascal
